Verse of the City

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Macho] Yo, you thought you did but you don't know me/ I'm all cities inside your Sony/ The realest heads ain't no man phony/ I'm every man from every land in every jam/ I intend to drop bombs and succeed at every plan/ I'm that heavy handed hood up to no good/ I'm the smart quiet type of brother to start a riot/ I'm that lover boy playing R&B in his car/ The thugged out cellar dweller hell with being a star/ Man I'm that rich kid my moms a doctor dad's a lawyer/ Or the broke brother sold out ready to die for you/ I'm from the nines world wide always up in a cipher/ The hard core hustler twenty five to lifer/ The one who never once stepped foot in a church/ But met God then that was the end of my search/ I'm the kid with the black hoodie when you're walking to class/ Spitting lyrics in the air like I'm ready to blast/ Yo I'm the verse of the city the song of the hood/ I spoke the truth when nobody else would/ I rocked the shows when nobody else could/ The Breed ran spots most crews never stood [Hook] We go deeper than your eyes can see/ More than your average crew nah we're New Breed/ We're the verse of the city the song of the hood/ Try and step to us I wish y'all would/ We are too strong for your hands to hold/ Never switch even for a million records sold/ We're the verse of the city the song of the hood/ Try and step to us I wish y'all would [Verse 2: Elsie] I cry the tears one shed when their ain't strength left/ Sometimes I feel I'm in a dream but ain't slept yet/ And while I'm prayin just to make it to the next step/ These whack rappers talk trash, while they cash checks/ Man I know we all thought it before/ What would happen if I let truth walk out the door/ And speak garbage/ Instead of dwelling on the Awesome and Sovereign/ Guess I'm blessed or cursed/ Depending on which way you look at the verse/ Cause I see it from right to left and I read it from last to first/ Because everything in this kingdom is backwards/ Still out the air I extract words/ Never lack words for hypocrites and actors/ I master this art that we call our own/ I love being in a 360 all in a zone/ That's where I'm comfortable even though I'm far from home [Hook] We go deeper than your eyes can see/ More than your average crew nah we're New Breed/ We're the verse of the city the song of the hood/ Try and step to us I wish y'all would/ We are too strong for your hands to hold/ Never switch even for a million records sold/ We're the verse of the city the song of the hood/ Try and step to us I wish y'all would [Verse 3a: Elsie] We deserve a standing ovation/ For single handedly manhandling this whole nation/ Tunnel Rats demanding rotation/ Cause it's evident obvious y'all emcee's copy us/ But if it's God you trust then do what you've been told/ Cause I'm gon keep moving until I'm dead and gone/ Spitting lead in my songs/ Not concerned with what I earn/ No regrets can't forget the ones who said I was wrong [Verse 3b: Macho] I got blood in my vains and Dert in the track/ All I need to proceed is for this blood that I bleed to pump harder faster/ Adrenalin rush for this art that I master/ Make you want to take the Tunnel Vision off the rack/ Rip it out the wrapper rock the rhythm to the max/ And if in fact one of you cats/ Ever want to step in the game/ Never do it for the money or fame We ain't playin' [Hook] We go deeper than your eyes can see/ More than your average crew nah we're New Breed/ We're the verse of the city the song of the hood/ Try and step to us I wish y'all would/ We are too strong for your hands to hold/ Never switch even for a million records sold/ We're the verse of the city the song of the hood/ Try and step to us I wish y'all would We go deeper than your eyes can see/ More than your average crew nah we're New Breed/ We're the verse of the city the song of the hood/ Try and step to us I wish y'all would/ We are too strong for your hands to hold/ Never switch even for a million records sold/ We're the verse of the city the song of the hood/ Try and step to us I wish y'all would
